well thats why im asking long before I get it

someones offering me and my friend a compact AC unit meant for cooling a 50'x100' room that has a "silent" mode on it, apparantly the cooling element ices over even at that setting I was thinking of putting the cold element inside the case, keeping the main part external, as kind of an intro to phase change. no modding of the unit mind you. also i dont think itd have any condensation since the entire inside of the case will be cold, and condensation is a cold object in a warm atmosphere...so maybe on the outside of the case
